Setting tzinfo for DateTimeFields with Postgresql - workaround

This is just a quick hack for anyone else bit by this: tzinfo is never set when reading DateTimeFields out of the database, at least with Postgresql. Now, I have no idea why anyone would want to set TIME_ZONE to anything but UTC (and the default of an arbitrary US timezone is rather bizarre), but
